Hi, sorry if this is in the wrong place but I am very new and would love some help.

Basically I'm trying to get my character to play through an animation once when a button is pressed (wave his arm in this case), I've created the animation.

I created a boolean in the game tab called "isClicked" and told Gamesalad to set its value to true when its clicked.

The problem is, from there I cant figure out how to do this:

If isClicked = true, start arm animation.

As I said, I've set up the animation which is just 3 frames but when the button is clicked......nothing.

I've been trying to figure it out for hours so any help would be appreciated.

    You need another rule in your character actor that says

    when attribute.isClicked = true

    -animation behavior with your art-

    I could have sworn I had tried that. I as figuratively tearing my hair out (at one point, almost literally). But it works now. Many thanks.
